While out collecting minerals off of Selleck Road in West Pierrepont, I spotted my first Milk Snake! As a young boy, I grew up chasing snakes all over my home state of Maine- but I never once saw a Milk Snake! The non-venomous Eastern Milk Snake (Lampropeltis triangulum triangulum) was sitting peacefully on a log as a strolled past. He did not flee or strike, but merely watched me as I watched him! I'm so happy that I was able to spot this species in the wild!
